Argumentative Discourse Concepts as Revealed by Traversing a Graph

Part 3: MHDWInternational audienceRecent advances in computing and Internet technologies, together with the advent of the Web 2.0 era have resulted in the development of a plethora of online tools, such as forums and social networking applications, which offer people an unprecedented level of flexibility and convenience to participate in complex argumentative discourses of diverse interest.
